Tennessee Volunteers Tickets

Tennessee Volunteers football tickets are a guaranteed ringside seat to top quality SEC action year in and year out. The 2005 college football season will be no different as the Volunteers set out to win a ticket to their 19th straight bowl game. The return of running back Gerald Riggs and a quarterback battle between Erik Ainge and Rick Clausen sets the stage for one of the most exciting seasons in years at Neyland Stadium for college football fans holding Tennessee Volunteers tickets.

The Volunteers will be building their offense around the powerful legs of Gerald Riggs again this year. Riggs, who had a breakout season, last year, carrying the ball for over 1,100 yards and a 5.7 yard per carry average in the 2004 season, has both the strength and the speed to get the job done again. The contest between Rick Clausen and Erik Ainge is renewed this year as Fulmer throws seniority out the window. While Ainge is bigger and stronger, Clausen’s performance in the Cotton Bowl, where he threw for three first half touchdowns, makes him a favorite among Volunteers ticket holders.

Neyland Stadium will be the home base for a vastly improved defense in the 2005 college football season. The Volunteers will benefit from the return of a more experienced squad. Anchored by Jason Allen, who won All-Sec honors last year for his play in the secondary, Tennessee should return to a more aggressive style of play. The defensive front is bolstered by defensive tackle Jesse Mahelona and Turk McBride, while Volunteers defensive end Parys Haralson has the pass rushing speed to cause problems for an offense.

In 2005, Tennessee Volunteers tickets give college football fans the chance to see SEC rivals like Mississippi (Oct. 1), the Georgia Bulldogs (Oct. 8), and Vanderbilt (Nov. 19). A true Volunteers fans will be looking hard at LSU Tigers tickets when Tennessee travels to “Death Valley” for a Sept. 24th match up, or possibly Notre Dame tickets when the Volunteers butt helmets with the Fighting Irish on Nov. 5.

Wherever the game, Tennessee Volunteers tickets are a sure fire promise of college footballs hottest action. The Volunteers are sporting a mixture of young talent and veteran experience in the 2005 college football season, and as they drive toward the ultimate goal of an SEC Championship and a trip to the BCS National Championship at the Rose Bowl, they’ll be plenty of action along the way for fans with Tennessee Volunteers tickets in their hands.
